Introduction

Metadata and Data Standards for Public Distribution System (PDS) are to bring uniformity in

capturing demographic and biometric data of PDS beneficiaries. An important part of the

Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS) project is the standardization of data elements

and formats pertaining to key entities/transactions associated with TPDS functions. Each of

these entities/transactions is characterized by a set of data elements that cover the

important details of the entity. In this context, Data standardization implies identifying the

minimum set of data elements that captures all required details of each entity/transaction;

and defining the data format of each data element. Standardized data definition for each

entity/transaction captures the set of minimum data elements required. The Data

Standardization is in accordance with the metadata standards defined for e-Governance

projects by Department of IT, Government of India.

Background

In the People’s Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL) v. Union of India and Others, Writ Petition

(Civil) No. 196 of 2001, the Hon’ble Supreme Court has passed orders on 27th July 2010

relating inter-alia to computerization of TPDS as below:

To avoid pilferage and corruption, there must be total computerization of the PDS on

top priority basis

The Union of India must prepare a software and the same software should be used

by all the States

The Union of India may consider computerization in consultation with the specialized

agencies like Unique Identification Authority of India or any other Agencies

Based on the directives of Hon’ble Supreme Court, a Task Force was formed on 09.08.2010

under the chairmanship of Director General, National Informatics Centre (NIC) which

includes representatives of Department of Information and Technology, UID Authority of

India (UIDAI), Department of Food and Public Distribution, Food Corporation of India (FCI)

and Food Secretaries of selected States/UTs as members.

Further, Task Force in its recommendations said that dedicated effort should be initiated with

a view to evolve common standards and processes for the TPDS across the country which

should then be ICT enabled into a single unified technology platform (including application)

to be rolled out across the country. Task force said that this is the responsibility of Central

Implementing Agency (now NIC) to prepare a document for the Standardization of the TPDS

Processes, Data, Meta-data and SRS as per recommendations of Core Group.

1. Scope

Identification of generic data elements and Standardization of their metadata (business

formats, validation checks, values, declarations, version, and ownership etc...) .The Public

Distribution System (PDS) applications would adopt metadata of these generic data

elements for designing the databases to ensure seamless interoperability while

interchanging data.

5. Specifications of Standards for PDS

5.1. Allocation of reference number to identified Data Elements

Purpose

With the objective of linking the identified data elements with their metadata, each one of

them has been allocated a unique reference number. Further, the reference numbers are

codified to ensure logical grouping of relevant data elements, some of which may be

identified in future.

5.1.1. Rationale of grouping of data elements for their codification

The generic data elements identified for Standardization can be described as:

Data elements having distinct identity with only one level of description

Data elements having two levels of description, where 2nd level describes the

subtypes.

These subtypes can be “Instances” or “Parts”, which also have distinct identity. Here

Instance (a type representing the same data element in different way) means representation

of the same root data element at 1st level in different formats, which may or may not be

mandatory to describe the root data element.

Part means physical sub division of the root data element at 1st level. The parts are

mandatory to describe the root data element.

For the purpose of Standardization and interoperability, data elements / attributes of tables in

databases of domain applications would be derived from the generic data elements, if

applicable.

5.1.2. Data elements reference number codification scheme

The codification scheme has been adopted for grouping of data elements at two levels. The

coding scheme has four parts to represent domain, data element within the domain, Instance

of data element, and part of the data element.

An Illustration Here:

XX: Defines the Domain number

YY: Defines the Data Element number within the domain xx

xx.yy-01 Defines an Instance of Data element xx.yy

xx.yy-00-01 Defines a Part of Data element xx.yy

xx.yy-01-01 Defines the Instance of the Data element part xx.yy-00-01

MDDS for Public Distribution System Document No: MDDS/PDS:01

Version No: 0.1 16 March 2015 Page 12 of 167

Codification scheme illustrations

a. Data element Date has three parts like:

Day

Month

Year

Hence, the data element coding would be as follows:

Domain name (xx): Common for

all domain application G00

DataElement: Date(in

dd/mm/yyyy) format) G00.01

1st Part of Date : Day G00.01-00-01

2nd Part of Date : Month G00.01-00-02

3rd Part of Date : Year G01.01-00-03
